RUMOR: QUEEN LATIFAH BROKE IT OFF WITH “TRAINER”?

Wednesday, December 13, 2006

queen1.jpg
(MORE PICS OF THE TWO: PIC 1 | PIC 2)

Speculation about Queen Latifah’s sexual orientation has been running in and out of Black Hollywood for years. Mostly because of her convincing portrayal of a lesbian in the 1996 movie “Set It Off.” Plus, she has never spoke out publicly about any of her past relationships..

Latifah responded to gay rumors in her 1999 autobiography by saying:

“It’s insulting when someone asks, ‘Are you gay?’ A woman cannot be strong, outspoken, competent at running her own business, handle herself physically, play a very convincing role in a movie, know what she wants—and go for it—without being gay? Come on.” (wikipedia)

queen1.jpgWell my inbox has been flooded with tips and links about this recent rumor involving the star.

Word has it that Queen Latifah and her rumored girlfriend, Jeanette Jenkins, broke it off after three years of dating. Jenkins is a trainer who has worked with numerous stars, and some of you may have seen her in those heath commercials that air on BET.

Anyway, people have been speculating about these two for awhile now, and if you check the archives I have some pictures/candids of the both them chilling at random events & parites.

Many sources are also saying that Jeanette plans on talking to media about her relationship with the popular star.

Bossip says that Latifah has been linked with: MC Lyte, Tichina Arnold (Pam from Martin), and boxer Laila Ali (Muhammad Ali’s daughter).

Obviously they haven’t been doing that much “training” so something has to be up.

In related news…

Earlier this year Latifah told Entertainment Tonight that she wanted to be a mother by next year. Well the year is almost up, so I wonder if she still plans on doing that.

@ Bill (raising an eyebrow)…

Ummm…now you got a sista curious. What kind of “trends” have you noticed? LOL Me and my husband have pondered whether the girls (the children of the lesbian couple) will grow up and be lesbians.

*Sigh*…it’s such a hard thing because so many kids need homes, and I think some gay parents can be good parents, just like I think SOME heterosexual couples can be good parents.

Damn — they must have given the Queen one of them free Pizza Hutt cards that they give you when you do the ads. Looks like she’s eatin the Pizza, the wings, the twisty bread, the cinasticks, other people’s crust and all that stuff. She needs to go talk to Jared. Eat FRESH, Latifah!

I don’t care what gay people do as long as they obey the law. Most of you do much worse than homosexuals in your own sexual activities.

Some of you folk break 9 of the 10 commandmendts, yet look to homosexuality as the ultimate sin as if you’re sins are different. We all fukk up, let’s quit looking at gays as if we’re on a different level.

I know PLENTY of heterosexuals with disfunctional homes where they raised disfunctional CHILDREN, so I don’t see why the odds of gays raising children are any different.

Some of you in here are some MAJOR HYPOCRITES! This is a MFin blog where you come in here to here the lates GOSSIP(which if you want to get biblical, is a sin)and then get HOLIER THAN THOU because MFers wanna know if she a top or bottom? GTFOH! So WHAT if people wanna know. That’s part of being a celbrity. Yes as a black community, we aren’t as accepting of the gay/lesbian lifestyle but maybe it she was to come out she would give someone who’s in the closet the courage to come the hell out! No one is putting a gun to her head and telling her to confess. If she NEVER tells anyone we already know the answer anyway.
What she eats doesn’t, make me shit so frankly I can care less but stop hawking people because they wanna know. Same ones in here tryin to find out which celeb is boinkin the next. So STFU!

Bill to answer your question.

Rosie - Don’t care
Gay couples - Don’t care
If Queen is lesb - Don’t care
Gay people adopting kids - care but can’t do a damn thing about it.

The kids are innocent and will be influenced by their environment. They will grow up and have many gay friends because many gay couples have boat loads of gay friends. It is what it is.

You are right Judah, crack is wack and the black family is busted because of it.

Bill Said:

You hit it RIGHT on the head when YOU said
“The kids are innocent and will be influenced by their environment”

I don’t understand WHY, but a LOT of my gay students have gay parents…

That’s all I’ll say about that….

And for the record; there are men who grew up in households full of other men and grew up to be gay.

There are men who grew up in a household full of women and grew up to be straight - You can no more explain a man being raised by his single, heterosexual father turning out to be gay than you can a man being raised by his single HOMOSEXUAL father turning out to be straight.

WHO raised you has no bearing on where YOU are sexually. If that was the case, there would BE no homosexuals because gays can’t have kids, so there would be nowhere for them to mimick their behavior.

Whether she chooses that lifestyle or not I agree is her business. But for Black celebrities, this is I know to be true: If they came out and put their hand on a stack of Bibles and swore that they were heterosexual, a lot of you guys wouldn’t believe it anyway. Hell, she can get caught on a boat like Pam Anderson and Tommy Lee with videotape and some of ya’ll would be like, “Aw wow - she’s going to GREAT LENGTHS to disprove the fact that she’s gay! OH BOY, the Queen is in SUCH denial!!”

The fact remains that folks who don’t have stardom like to live vicariously through stars. Accusing folks of being gay when there’s really no way that they can prove their sexuality (how does one do this?) is what drives some folks’ day.

What if this is just Latifah and a close friend who understands her spirit? (Too innocent — no juicy enough.)

I have a lot of strong women of color who helped to raise me who just didn’t preoccupy themselves with trying to “get a man”. It’s unfortunate because they have a lot to offer, but with the way that things are today and sometimes due to the way that people were raised, women just have a hard time trusting men or at least pairing themselves with a man who they feel bonded with. I was on the damn chat channel last night and saw a lot of avatars of fine ass women and all I heard was, “the men are fine in Florida” or “I like the men here”. None of em seemed to have men of their own. Are they gay?

I’m not saying what her lifestyle is one way or the other. But without being crude, I agree with the sentiment that some folks are way too preoccupied with her sexuality. Mostly those who want her to just “admit that she’s gay”. If only we put this much effort into things like education and career goals.

I alwayz thought being on the DL was people having one publicly accepted lifestyle(wife/husband/kids)…but a very different private life…unknown to the people in their life.
Queen Latifah is not on the DL….she’s just not talking about her business.
Anywhoo, why all the women she was linked to so extremely butch….Guess only Ellen could pull a feminine lesbian….stereotypes, what a bitch
(and Laila Ali is married to quite a hunk)….

I understand your point, but please hear my counterpoint…

Gays adopt a LOT.

I would dare say (I don’t have stats, this just my own personal opinion) that It appears that Gay couples are adopting more than straight couples (at least here in New Jersey, where Gay’s run entire City’s like Plainfield & Woodbridge).

And Let’s say a woman had children, and then she decided to move in and have a relationship with another woman…Those children are not being reared by a same sex couple……

I was just noticing an interesting trend with children from same sex couples….
That they tend to emulate and mirror the sexuality of their parents…..
Once again, I don’t have Stats to prove my theory.
It is something that I seemed to notice in my own particular caseload.

Bill,
I just have strong feelings about kids and kids who are adopted already have an added issue.
I have seen many gay couples adopt kids and on top of that kids from different ethnic backgrounds.

Now I firmly believe that love is love but in the real world, sexual identity, racial identity, social identity comes into play.

To be gay is something that I cannot get down with because I was not raised around it but I do respect those that are. Adopting children is a whole other issue.

I just feel sorry for the kids because they did not ask to have a mommy/mommy or a daddy/daddy. Nor did they ask to be put up for adoption.

Anyone on here and agree or disagree with me. That is just how I feel about it. GOD created us all and he loves us all but we were designed to be Man and Woman. If that were’nt the case then we would not all be here.

Bill, what you’re seeing is why it’s very important for black men to be men and restore order to their family and to the black community in general. I went over this “only God can judge me” mentality with someone on some post the other day and what that essentially equates to is “I’m my own god” because like you said, those people don’t respect Christ, they respect the standards (or lack thereof) of this society. Somewhere along the line, morality has been blurred with legality, so essentially “as long as it’s legal, it’s right”. That’s presuming that the people who pass the laws are righteous people, lol. It’s the black man’s fault because we haven’t set the right standards for ourselves so everything else is going to fall. When you examine this shit: 2 mommies, 2 daddies, etc., it’s nothin’ but fuckin’ confusion. That’s why these people get so emotional when you contest this bullshit because what they’re doing has no foundation.

yes a man can lick and penetrate…and yes a woman can lick and penetrate with the right tools…but its all about your taste..what you see as attractive. I mean..a man can suck..but if ur straight ur not gonna want a man to be suckin on you are u?..maybe lesbians dont find men attractive..maybe theyre more attracted to the beauty of a woman. maybe they dont like hairy ass stubly ass men. maybe the prefer pretty over handsome. im not sure what is in a lesbians head or heart…but its most likely its similar to what straight people feel.

A straight woman might see a man she finds attractive…and she might see a man she DOESNT find attractive. The unattractive one might lick just as good as the attractive one…but she will prefer the one she is most attracted to. its not all about what ur skills are..its about what youre attracted to and who you have chemistry with!

Arguing Against Homosexuality

by
Jason Dulle
JasonDulle@charter.net

——————————————————————————–

Question:

An unsaved friend asked me for referrences in the Bible apart from Genesis where it states that homosexuality/lesbianism is wrong. I have some but I need some more. Also, how can I demonstrate that homosexuality is morally wrong apart from the Scripture seeing that most unbelievers these days do not believe in the authority of the Bible?

Answer:

The Biblical witness is clearly against the practice of homosexuality. God did not intend for male and male, or female and female to have sexual relations. As the popular saying goes, “God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!” The OT clearly condemns homosexuality. The Law of Moses said, “You shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is an abomination” (Leviticus 18:22; c.f 20:13).

The OT also condemns “sodomites,” which were male temple prostitutes (I Kings 14:24; 15:12; 22:46; II Kings 23:7). Some would argue that these male prostitutes were for the female worshippers, but it was primarily the males who involved themselves in the cultic worship of the pagan temples. The male prostitutes were for the purpose of homosexual acts with other men.

The NT is just as clear on this issue as is the OT. In Romans 1 Paul was demonstrating how the Gentiles have failed to live up to the revelation of God given them. He wrote of the many evils they did while suppressing the knowledge of God revealed to them (Romans 1:18-21). Such evils included idolatry, fornication, maliciousness, disobedience to parents, hate for God, inventions of evil things, and homosexuality.. Paul plainly declared, “Because of this [the suppression of truth resulting in idolatry], God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion” (Romans 1:26-27, NIV). Although homosexuality is not named as such here, the act of homosexuality is clearly described. It was in judgment that God allowed men and women to have sexual relations with the same sex, but they did receive in themselves their due punishment for such indecent acts.

While listing those who would not inherit the kingdom of God, Paul noted that homosexuals will not be saved: “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God” (I Corinthians 6:9-10, NIV). To further demonstrate that these things are not to be named among Christians Paul continued to say, “And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God” (v. 11).

The Biblical evidence is conclusive that homosexual relations are ungodly, but the case against homosexuality is not limited to the Biblical witness. There is also sound reasons to object homosexuality as an acceptable behavior. Homosexuality is unnatural. Speaking as plainly as I can, all people have “in holes” and “out holes” in their body. Some holes are designed to take things into them, and some holes are designed to rid things from the body. We should not confuse the obvious purpose of these holes. Nature argues against homosexuality as an “alternative” lifestyle.

Most people who argue for homosexuality will tend to believe in evolution also. You could point out to these individuals that even evolution argues against their practices. Evolution teaches the survival of the fittest. Since homosexuals cannot reproduce offspring, they cannot continue in the fight for survival, and thus are an inferior “species.” I’m sure that no homosexual would like to think of himself/herself in this manner, but their own philosophies would lead them to that conclusion. There is no denying it that their lifestyle contradicts the natural order of things.

In conclusion, the sin of homosexuality is debase, but homosexuals are in need of salvation as are all other sinners. We are to love the sinner, but hate his/her sin. All people are valuable and should be loved simply because they are created in God’s image, and had their sins paid for by Jesus Christ at Calvary. We must respect homosexuals as human beings, but never condone or accept their ungodly behavior. There is a difference between our position as to the moral nature of homosexuality, and our personal feelings towards homosexuals. Some Christians have confused these two issues, allowing their position to influence their feelings toward the homosexual person in a negative, hateful manner. Such an attitude is unchristian. Let us make it clear to our world that we love all people because they are created in God’s image, but must stand in opposition to their sin against our loving Savior.

To Bill:

I cannot believe you are using your extremely small sample of examples to judge an entire orientation. The American Pediatric Association (as well as other organizations) have PROVEN that children raised by same-sex couple are just as healthy and secure as those raised by heterosexual couples. Moreover, ANY child who is adopted by a caring, loving adult, whether they be in a couple or raising them by themselves is MUCH better off than being the foster care system. I think it is a shame that grown folk are continuing to spread this misinformation as gospel, and then fall back on the tired line: “I am not judging anybody, but…” I would never use my personal experiences as an indictment on the whole world. That is childish behavior.

i am lesbian, and i feel DO NOT feel shameful in any capacity. as for queen latifah, if she is gay, i doubt she has negative feelings about her sexual orientation. the reason many celebrities don’t come out is because of the stigma placed upon them by society (homophobia). think about it, if you’re a black celebrity in hollywood, you already have less opportunity and press in the mainstream circles.these celebrities really have to rely upon black media and black hollywood circles for support. the church has had such a strong influence on the black community, that i think many of these celebrities feel their base will evaporate and their coverage in the black press will disappear or have a negative slant. i mean look at meshell ndegeocello. i felt that the black media dropped the ball as far as she was concerned because she was bi and not the most feminine woman.

i think if there were more gay black celebrities out, it would help with the disconnect that is happening between the two words black and homosexual. i mean jesse jackson made a statement about not comparing civil rights with gay rights, but that seems to be because the only face of homosexuality is white. i would personally love for queen latifah (and other black celebrities) to come out because it would help with the visibility of gay black people, but as long as there are self-righteous people like BILL out there it will be a long time coming.

i feel like the dl phenomenon has to do with two things 1. homophobia and bible thumping in the black community. 2.a general disrespect for black women. i don’t care if you are gay or straight, there is no excuse for consistently being deceitful to your partner. i think the only way the black community can combat this is for parents to accept their children when they come out, and for the black community to make it COMPLETELY unacceptable to gay bash, to refer to being gay as a sin, and to say hateful remarks about being gay. a good example of intolerance is the way ving rhames was reported as “being a normal black man” because he couldn’t bring himself to kiss another man. (as though it is abnormal for two men to kiss or do more…rolling my eyes) but i guess those changes will be a long time coming too. whatever, thats just my take on the situation.

If people truly had faith and followed the Bible and its teachings then we would not have all of these sinful things going on in the world today.

Many children would be raised by their own two parents because they would be right with GOD and realize that having children is a gift from the LORD.
They would stop the drugs and killing each other and love their kids and value their lives.

The problem is that society has given way to being politically correct and not to faith.

Sin is the result of not respecting Christ.

oh lord stop throwing scripture at people. not everybody is a christian. some people don’t even have a religion. why don’t you go wrap yourself up in the idealogies of the bible and see if it will keep you warm. god only cares about one thing and that is love. people love not ideas. if you are so enmeshed in your ideas that you have no room in your heart for people who don’t subscribe to them, then that is YOUR hang-up.

@Sheeeit,

You waste a lot of energy trying to put meat on dry bones! Attraction, distraction! There is something very immoral and perverted about Sodom and Gomorrah! It’s not an intelligent endeavor as you try to describe it! Its more animalistic and premative! The path of least resistance! In the end, it comes down to power, control and selfishness, which is why I pray that a gay person never teaches children below college age!

Bills list of things that break up the family can be broken down a little more! When you examine the lack of respect for Jesus, you can stop in your tracks! That means a lack or respect for righteousness! A lack of respect for morality and the natural order of things! The black family is being destroyed by the same thing that’s destroying the world and all mankind…SIN! We can cut right to the chase! Latifah knows that a gay person outside of the closet will burn up like a vampires in the day light!

Sheeeit, according to to your quip, some people are attracted to their dogs! So, that would mean, in the confines of ones own bedroom, its okay to allow the dog to lick…cause he will! If its not about skills, why don’t people stay together? And, why is there so much pre marital sex? You know, try the milk before you buy the cow?

So, the lesbo is all about quality! She wants a beautiful body with no beard or hairy azz! What is she doing looking in he azz anyhow? hehe!

Sorry Sis, but I think you’re trying to make sense out of something that is indecent and out of order!

===================================================

#55 @ MissTee2U, don’t get it twisted, SIN is the biggest threat to the black family! And, homosexuality is on the list of don’ts!

Those of you are caught up, need to turn back and get educated to things decent and in order!

And, to the illogical person who talked about “casting the first stone”…I ask this, should we cast the first stone at a rapist? Yes! Should we cast the first stone at a pedifier? Should we cast the first stone at a drunk driver? What about a murder? When is it right to fight back? After more children are inffected? After more girls get attacked by the lesbo pack?

Now, go back and sit quietly in your closets living a lie like Latifah!!!

I don’t see why it’s so important whether or not she is gay. Let her live her life. We are so concerned with who’s humping who that we don’t get our ownselves together. People need to worry about theie own lawns before they tend to someone else’s garden.

When you read Isaiah the 4th chapter it not only goes into how a man will have 7 women but also how the filth of our women will have to be cleansed because unfortunately a lot of sisters, not all obviously, think that this homosexual confusion is okay.

Sheeeit said: “…ZV yes being gay is a sin. but EVERYONE has sinned and come short of the glory of God. being gay aint no worse than being a fornicator, adulterer, drug addict, drunk, thief, liar, murderer, idol worshiper, gossiper, EVERYONE is a sinner! and if you THINK you’re not a sinner, THATS a sin in itself.”

=====================================================

The difference is when you gays are asking for acceptance and you continue to live in that sin! Yes, the fornicator and adulter are sinners too, but what victory do you claim by association with that group? hehe! You sound like you’re relieved that there are some other sinners just as bad as homosexuals! You have a twisted way of thinking to justify your cause? This is why I hope you never have power over a young person! Homos can never make good parents or teachers! The potions is weakening by your belief! Soon, there will be no balm! I have never seen an adulterer asking for acceptance! They’re all in the closet too!

It is undeniable what the Bible says about homosexuality, and I believe in the Bible. But I also understand commandments and laws that apply to *ME* that I have broken, so I tend to worry about my own weaknesses, and my own relationship with God. I have repented of many things, but I am still human and will never be perfect; therefore, I try to focus on my OWN flaws.

I said it earlier and I will say it again, as a lowly man (as in humankind), I cannot say which sins God considers greater or lessor. You’d have to be living under a rock to not know that the Bible considers homosexuality a sin.

But the Bible also says that we shouldn’t look on people who aren’t OUR spouse with lust (Denzel? Halle Berry? MizzLizz and Mika? Anyone? LOL–I just threw those CL’s in because the boys love them here…LOL).

The Bible says that we should not eat pork, and black folks LOVE us some pork.

The Bible says that we should not gossip (we ALL doomed on that one)! LOL

My point is, we can point fingers until we are BLUE IN THE FACE, but judge not lest ye be judged. I have to believe that God will be a fair judge to ALL of us in the context of our lives when we have to account for our sins, and I believe that his judgement will be as fair to homosexuals, as it will be to fornicators or thieves or gossips or …you get my point.
